unimportant Forth question (from someone who. does not get forth(s) (yet?)):

Why do Forths not appeal to my sense of symmetry and do strings, instead of like:

s" <string contents here>"

do them like:

s" <string contents here> "s

which would have the front and back still match?

And so it begins!

@alderwick I do believe it should be an A, otherwise the word doesn't really make sense, no?

Alot of famous things happened on November 9 other than my Birthday 😂
Here’s some music to accompany this random walk down random-coincidence-lane.

Today is Carl Sagan Day! He was born in November 9, 1934!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Sagan

It’s not Edward VII’s day, even though he was born on November 9 as well, of 1841… maybe there are some Edward VII fans out there partying today.

Alot of things have happened in Germany on November 9:

November 9, 1918: The Kaiser abdicates and a Republic is declared as WWI grinds to an Armistice two days later.

Of course… exactly 20 years later, Kristallnacht (“the night of broken glass”) happened and was the one of the first extreme shows of genocidal Nazi behaviour on the road to the Holocaust.

https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/november-9/nazis-launch-kristallnacht

And then… exactly 51 years after Kristelnacht, the Berlin Wall fell. (I distinctly remember my 12th birthday… and watching this on TV.)

https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/november-9/east-germany-opens-the-berlin-wall

And because there is just not enough bad things that happened to Jewish people on November 9 apparently… I just found out that November 9, 694 the Visigoth King in Toledo, Hispania accused Jews of aiding Muslims, and sentence all Jews to slavery. Gawd!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seventeenth_Council_of_Toledo

In other Spain related events, the Treaty of Seville ended the Anglo-Spanish war on November 9 1729… though apparently it didn’t really end much… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Seville

November 9 1799 was also the date that Napolean Bonaparte lead a coup and became leader of France before eventually declaring himself Emperor. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coup_of_18_Brumaire

I almost didn’t live past the age of 2, probably anyway… because in November 9 1979, NORAD computers detected a possible nuclear first strike from the Soviets. Thankfully, the raw data was checked, nothing was happening, the alert was cancelled. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NORAD#False_alarms

November 9 1905: The Province of Alberta, Canada holds its first general election. A Liberal, Alexander C. Rutherford became the first elected Premier (he had been appointed Premier on September 1 when the province blinked into existence…. *cough* #canpoli #albertaSeparatists https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1905_Alberta_general_election

But I think my ‘favourite’ November 9 history fact is weather, and Canada, related. This was the day in 1975 when the SS Edmund Fitzgerald left port for the final time. It left Duluth, Wisconsin with a load of iron ore it sank the next day off Sault St. Marie in Hurricane force winds and huge 35ft seas.
